papered
Decorated with rolls
Papered is the past tense of paper, meaning to cover with wallpaper: We papered the nursery in yellow stripes.
In informal usage, papered describes something backed by documentation—credentials, contracts, or records: The deal was fully papered before closing.
To be papered over is to be concealed superficially without real resolution: They papered over their differences for the sake of the children.
